frames for string project

UWEC: McIntyre Library Breezeway exhibition space

Jyl's Estimate: 8' ceilings, 60'x120' (?)

There is a smaller adjoining room that can be used as well.  No windows, approximately 20'x40'(also estimated by Jyl)
Shades can be drawn on windows or coverings can be placed over glass if necessary.
Furniture can be removed.

Link to inside experience

So here are some sketches of our installation.

Our installation involves a constructed space that will enclose hundreds of inflated balloons. There will be an entrance into the space at one end. The opposite end will have a projection of the word "FULL". The interior of the space will be visible from all sides because the walls will be made of transparent plastic. The audience is invited to enter the space and interact with the balloons. Our hope is that the balloons will gradually be popped, creating more open space in the structure. As the balloons pop, more of the word "FULL" will be readable. We want to question how the space inside the structure (and inside the balloons) is percieved. Is it full when the balloons are inflated? Is it full when the balloons are popped?

As of right now, our installation takes up an area about 27' x 10'. Is this too big? If so, we have ways of making it take up less space. Where would be a good place for us to install. You guys know the space better than we do, so feedback would be helpful on this matter.

Thanks!
